Just a short post to say we named him Caleb Jon Melser. We had a list of names we liked from many years ago when we started on this journey. Then we saw his picture and we narrowed it down to two names. Then we did a little more research on who these people were in the Bible. We wanted a biblical name and for it to mean something to us and to him some day.
I have met so many people, Christians that is, online that know of Caleb. Many are sending us photos at different stages of his life so far. We will have a full photo book before we meet him! I have been looking into how to send him gifts and a cake for his birthday. It is exciting to think a camera will be sent along with the cake and then we should get the camera back or the photos (I cannot remember how that works). Oh, how we are longing to travel to meet him and bring him home...
Numbers 14:24
"But because my servant Caleb has a different spirit and follows me wholeheartedly, I will bring him into the land he went to, and his descendants will inherit it."
